I know I read in "Florida Skip" about 5 or 6 years about
two fellows at the Miami HAMvention that had received
99+ and 98+ wpm - 5 minutes with out one error - by ear
and typed into Apple IIC computers with Dorvac keyboards
(a built-in option, as it is with LINUX) at a `certified'
speed test, it was not a speed record. (according to the article)
A picture of the two holding their printed out text was shown.
